Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - August 27, 2026, 08 AM Eastern

This hour on Israel Today: we cover escalating tensions with Iran, including alleged bounties targeting the Trump family and military actions in Lebanon and the Strait of Hormuz. We'll bring you updates from the West Bank, where IDF forces are being doubled ahead of Jewish holidays due to rising extremist violence, and from Gaza, where two Hamas Nukhba terrorists were eliminated. Plus, a new report highlights antisemitism in U.S. teachers' unions, and we look at the domestic political landscape in Israel, including Prime Minister Netanyahu's concerns about upcoming elections and potential diplomatic expulsions.
